The music choice seemed to come straight from our play list. Elizabeth spoke to us straight from the heart. We felt like we knew her for years. She showedso much patience when answering all our questions. She listened to what we wanted and made great suggestions. We can not wait toreturn and bring friends.

We were surprised to see that this restaurant was in a strip mall. So, it was not really what weexpected from the start and it only kept disappointing from there. The highlights of the meal as a whole was the drinks, thesalmon, and the French onion soup. We started with the French Onion Soup and the Crab and Artichoke dip. The onion soup wasgreat, but the Crab Artichoke dip was bland with no taste of crab at all. It could have just been an artichoke dip only and wewould have never known. Those tables around us got bread and butter served to their tables, but our server neglected to bringthese to our table. It would have been nice to have with the French Onion Soup. We waited about 20-minutes to get our dinnerserved, but it was incomplete to start. My fiancé got the Salmon which she said tasted really good. I ordered the steak withspinach and green beans. I asked for a balsamic vinegar for the spinach and my green beans were delayed. The steak was tenderbut it could have been seasoned more. We both noticed that the food presentation was absolutely missing. It was just plain. Mygreen beans came very late in the meal along with my balsamic although they gave to me a balsamic glaze when I asked forbalsamic vinegar. I tried it with the cooked spinach and it was horrible. So, it went untouched. Our server was missing for mostof the meal and we waited quite some time for her to return. I wanted to order another drink, but that never happened. We waitedand waited to pay while those table around us left and were reseated. I asked the hostess if I get my server and about 5-7minutes later the hostess returned and said that she could not get the attention of my server. She offered to us a free desertwhich was nice but we do not eat desserts so we declined. She eventually returned with our check after we asked for

However, the decor could use some refreshing, as the lighting throughout the restaurant is rather dim. It was slightly frustrating that we had to call for our server multiple times, especially in an otherwise empty venue. That said, I did notice that she was very attentive to a regular customer, ensuring his favorite meal was ordered before he was even seated. While I can appreciate her attentiveness to returning guests, it would be nice if she extended the same level of service to everyone else.
